Rituals
ritualsau.bandcamp.com
Rituals have spent the last 12 months performing around Melbourne, regional Victoria and interstate with their uncompromising style
of melodic death metal. Their debut single "Benumbed" has been incredibly well received, and the remainder of 2018 will see the band
showcasing their debut EP.
Wood of Suicides
woodofsuicides.bandcamp.com
Wood of Suicides are a doom trio that have been splattering their brand of disgusting doom on the Melbourne live scene for ten years.
They will be releasing a limited run of their colossal track Woods End on cassette, the foreboding doom epic is a fan favourite that
will also be available digitally with a download code in each tape.
MALEFICIUM
maleficium.bandcamp.com
Maleficium play a straight up old school style of death metal, drawing influence from the golden era (e.g. Suffocation, Morbid Angel & Malevolent Creation to name a few). The Melbourne based 5-piece showcases a bludgeoning display of aggression and precision which is best experienced live… They are also proud to announce the release of their debut EP “Ritual Enslavement”, which is hot off the press and has been described as “A solid combination of contemporary brutality and old school character... A solid release that traverses the subgenres”
Kinesthesis
kinesthesis.bandcamp.com
Hailing from the Dandenong Ranges are Raw & Filthy Death-Grind Luddites KINESTHESIS. This three piece are absolutely irate about something, but unable to express it in any other way than skullcrushing, brain-liquifying, lip-slicing and teeth scraping 90's inspired Death Metal.

Well, we have a house kit, and keyboard, so all you need to do is come down with your instrument (guitar, bass, sax, harmonica, etc), and then Jimi will piece together the right players to start jamming!

Rocky Water Promotions first birthday!

Oh how a year flies by. It's hard to believe that July 15, 2017 Rocky Water Promotions held its first show. It featured four local bands (Loose End, Wicked Figures (now To Octavia), Hara Kiri and At Second Glance) at Wrangler Studios. While At Second Glance are no longer a band, it's been great to see the other three blossom into the bands they are today.
Since then I have worked with countless bands; everything from grindcore (Bloodbomb, Hand of Fear) to singer-songwriters (Saffire, Violett A Fraser).
On July 15, 2018, at one of my favourite venues in Whole Lotta Love, Rocky Water Promotions celebrates one year since its first show with a FREE mini-fest birthday bash and it will feature seven of my favourite bands I have worked with in the past year. And boy was it hard narrowing it down to seven.
The lineup:
THE AVENUE PROJECT - I've had the pleasure of working with this hardcore punk band a few times now and not only are they lovely people, they're a fantastic live band and I'm stoked they said yes to headline this show.
www.facebook.com/theavenueproject/
SVCRED - Another band I've had the pleasure of working with on multiple occasions. If you haven't yet discovered this alternative metal outfit then what better chance than now? Plus, they just put out their debut EP.
www.facebook.com/WeAreSVCRED/
Anticline - I worked with this Ballarat hardcore band for the first time recently. They have a great sound, are super tight live and really impressed me. Am keen to work with them again.
www.facebook.com/AnticlineBallarat/
MRKILL - Earlier this year, Mrkill played their first ever show at a RWP event. It too was at Whole Lotta Love. They blew me away that night, their music was tight and in your face and is not to be missed.
www.facebook.com/mrkillband/
ANKL - I've worked with a bunch of bands from outside of Melbourne but there's one I keep going back to and it's this alternative metal band from Ballarat. You only have to hear them once to understand why.
www.facebook.com/ankl42/
LITTLE RITUALS - I didn't want the whole lineup to be heavy (even though that is predominately what I promote) but there was one band that I had to have on this show and it was these guys. The first time I heard them live they reminded me a lot of Incubus and I knew I had to work with them again. July 15 will mark the third time working with them.
www.facebook.com/littlerituals/
THE LESSER GIANTS - Last, but certainly not least, is this rock band who will open the show. I worked with them for the first time in January and they really impressed me so I am super keen to work with the band again.
